gotcha fizzle thanks. I was just waxing the bottom of my hull and was wondering if I could or not.

Wax on the bottom actually slows you down. The wax repells water and creates a thin layer of air. You want a slightly abrasive surface to break the water tension. The reason golf balls are dimpled is the dimples and ridges create turbulence that allows it to travel farther, faster. A company has actually come out with a vinyl application that improves big rigs fuel efficiency by like 7%. It has the same dimple pattern as a golf ball.
